Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleGENE IMPRINTING: ENGRAVING THE PATHOGENESIS OF HERIDETARY DISEASESSandeep Satapathy, Roshan Kumar Singh, Harikrishnan RajendranGene imprinting has conduited the scope of our understanding of phenotypic expression and its corelation with constituent genotype. It is an epigenetic process that involves DNA methylation and histone modulation to attain monoallelic gene expression without altering the genetic sequences. A distinctive model of non-mendelian genetics, imprinting extends the control over expression of traits and selection of the allele that … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 12 Feb 2014 · 7,682 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEFFECTS OF MELANOCORTIN-4 RECEPTOR GENE ON GROWTH AND MEAT TRAITS IN PIGS RAISED IN RUSSIAA. Klimenko, A. Usatov, Lyubov Getmantseva et al.The Melanocortin-4 Receptor (MC4R), a G-protein coupled receptor, is implicated in mediating the effect of leptin on food intake and energy balance. A previous candidate gene study reported an association between an MC4R polymorphism (Asp298Asn) and growth and meat productive traits of pigs. The aim of this work was to determine frequencies of the MC4R/Taq I genotypes and alleles in … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 11 Feb 2014 · 7,608 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Effects of Forkhead Box P2 Gene on Language Functional Articulation DisorderLi-Yu ZhouThis study mainly concentrates on the discussion of the relationship between FOXP2 gene and language functional articulation disorder. The children of functional articulation disorder are selected, the normal healthy subjects in the corresponding period served as the controls, by contrasting with five polymorphic sites in FOXP2 gene to have a correlative study on human genes and language acquisition with the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 22 Jan 2014 · 7,201 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleANOTHER CANDIDATE IG KAPPA-LIKE GENE IN THE SEA STAR A. RUBENSMichel LeclercIn a recent paper we have shown that Ig Kappa genes (region MOPC 63, region K2), of 250 nucleotides each, were present in the sea star Asterias rubens. Two years later, a 697 nucleotide Ig Kappa chain V-V region K2 gene was accentuated. …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 20 Dec 2013 · 6,758 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMagnum Opus: Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats Biology and Prokaryotic Gene SilencingPrem Saran Tirumalai, Ashim Kumar BagchiGene Silencing was a technology that was established in eukaryotic system a decade ago and is being used as a research tool widely. However, prokaryotic gene silencing was not workable, till recently a team of researchers from the University of Georgia have proved it possible. Where they have shown that short motif sequences determines the targets of the prokaryotic Clustered … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 5 Oct 2013 · 7,144 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA True New Gene: An Invertebrate Antibody Igkappa GeneMichel Leclerc, Nadine Vincent, Magne Osteras, Patricia OttenThe sea star Asterias rubens reacts specifically to the antigen: Horse-Radish Peroxydase (HRP) and produces an «antibody» anti-HRP.We had presented a candidate IgKappa gene corresponding to this last one in 2013. We show now the gene called: «sea star IgKappa gene» in its specificity. We have to know, at the present time that, at our knowledge, the sea star doesn’t … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 24 Sep 2013 · 7,007 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePolymorphisms in the 5’ Flanking Region and First Exon of Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 Gene in Southern Populations of BuffaloSaber Khederzadeh, Ahmad YazdanpanahThe Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1) system plays a critical endocrine role controlling nutrient metabolism in animals and it is a group of structurally-related polypeptides that regulate the growth of many types of mammalian cells. In liver, IGF-1 is dynamically regulated by lactation and energy balance. Less is known about the regulation of IGF-1 and IGF-binding protein mRNA in reproductive … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 21 Sep 2013 · 6,846 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePolymorphism of Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 Gene in Najdi Cattle PopulationsAhmad Yazdanpanah, Khalil Mirzadeh, Morteza Mamouei et al.The Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1) system plays a critical endocrine role controlling nutrient metabolism in dairy cattle and it is a group of structurally-related polypeptides that regulate the growth of many types of mammalian cells. In liver, IGF-1 is dynamically regulated by lactation and energy balance. Less is known about the regulation of IGF-1 and IGF-binding protein mRNA in … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 21 Sep 2013 · 7,154 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHigh Frequency of Stop Codons in the Human Immunodeficiency Virus-1 Protease Gene Frame in Human Immunodeficiency Virus+ Individuals with Below Detectable Levels of Plasma Viremia During Highly Active Antiretroviral TherapyMagdalena Czubala, Kabo Matlho, Maria Arriaga et al.We performed sequence analysis of HIV-1 proviral protease gene fragment (560 base pairs) amplified from ex-vivo peripheral blood mononuclear cells of 83 HIV+ individuals with Below Detectable Levels (BDL) (<20-40 RNA copies/ml plasma) and detectable levels of plasma HIV viremia while on HAART. Noteworthy was the systematic presence of stop codons identified only in the BDL group and not in … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 14 Nov 2012 · 8,073 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleGenetic Diversity in Cichla monoculus (Spix and Agassiz, 1931) Populations: Implications for Management and ConservationCarlos Henrique Dos Anjos Dos Santos, Carolina Fernandes Silva De Sousa, Maria de Nazare Paula-Silva et al.Problem statement: The object of this study was to examine the genetic structure and gene flow in Cichla monoculus populations in seven varzea lakes of the Solimoes River using Randomly Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers, to monitor the region where petroleum is transported in the Amazon basin. Approach: The loss of genetic diversity is one of the main factors leading … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 30 Jan 2012 · 8,517 accessesView PDFCite
